    Without talking about his controversy with the vaccines, would someone tell me why I wouldnt want to vote for RFK jr?

    Edit: still waiting on that

      I mean. Antivax bullshit is more than enough to disqualify him immediately for any sane voter. Why would someone spend any additional time learning about his other opinions?

        Thats… pretty sad. So lets say there was a candidate that had all your ideal solutions except they were what you consider antivax, that person is no longer a good candidate?

          I reject the premise.

          It’s impossible for them to have all my ideal solutions because that would necessarily include supporting medical science.

          Being an outspoken antivaxxer shows a severe lack of critical thinking skills. Vaccines are not what matters most to me - having a representative that accepts reality is.

            All i said was to suspend some disbelief. Lets pretend this candidate was a doctor themselves but had a rational take on why they are antivax.

              Suspend disbelief in what? Whether vaccines work? Pretend they really do cause autism?

              Ok yeah in bizarro universe I may be interested in an antivaxxer’s opinions. And Superman is a bad guy. Puppies aren’t cute…

              How is that useful? We live in a reality where vaccines do work. They don’t cause autism. And puppies are cute AF.
